What is a TIC: Attorney Opinion Letter? - Part 3

Pros and Cons

In general, it is important to be aware of the pros and cons of something before going through with it, and the same rule applies to the TIC financing option. There are a lot of different factors that one should consider when purchasing a TIC. Whether there have been any evictions on the property they are considering, how long the current TIC partners have been in place, and how many units are in the building, for instance, are all relevant and very important to take into consideration here.

Although they do hold many benefits, TICs are also quite risky, and are subject to changes in legislation that could offer a negative blow at any point. Because of this it is important for anyone even just considering investing in a TIC to make themselves more educated and to speak to a professional in this area so they can get help in deciding whether this is going to be a smart financial move for them or not.
